Callahans Show Their Colors – Twin sisters Carrie and Grace Callahan of Branchburg have exemplified both patriotism and loyalty at

Immaculata High School. Carrie and Grace have been raising and lowering the American flag outside of IHS each day since September. The flag was donated by the family of Staff Sgt. Andrew LoBosco, an Immaculata graduate, who was killed in Afghanistan. The girls said, “Being able to put the American flag up and down every day gives us a new respect for our country.” Grace Callahan added, “It is an honor to put up the Andrew LoBosco Flag, it reminds me who is fighting for our country.” —submitted by Kerry Hannan

With nearly 30 percent of St. Ann School students coming from Branch- burg, it’s no surprise that many of the school’s activities are anchored by Branchburg volunteers. This may be the most exciting one yet. Branchburg resident Rich Pabst has returned as chairman of the St. Ann School Golf Outing at Raritan Valley Country Club on May 9. This year Fullerton Ford will sponsor a Hole-In-One Prize, offering a Ford Mustang to a lucky golfer.

Golfers will enjoy a barbeque luncheon, on-course refreshments, cock- tail hour and dinner with three-hour open bar and prizes. Not a golfer? Friends or spouses can join the luncheon or dinner for $30pp or $60pp, respectively. Call Rich at (908) 565-2718 to register or to learn about sponsorship opportunities. —submitted by Traci Gorky
